Cannot see JFXPanels on modal JDialog

[Werner Lehmann]

Solved, another case of PEBCAK. I was showing the JDialog directly from 
the FX application thread. SwingUtilities.invokeLater helped. Of course, 
it would have been nice to be able to use a FX window in the first 
place... but that does not take a JFrame as owner.

FWIW, here's the application thread stack trace waiting on the AWT treelock.
